    Melbourne Airport Parking revenue grab?

    Don't tell anyone but the drive-up price at the Value car park is $12 per 24 hrs. No need to book ahead. The website is obviously misdirecting people to more expensive options.

    We’re launching a Qantas Status Run service + free giveaway

    I get the impression that you pay the fee and then you get what you're given. What you're given may not be better than what you've researched yourself. This service is better suited to those who wants to do zero research themselves. I hope you can at least set your own criteria like weekend only...

    Family of 5, are points and rewards still worth pursuing? particularly if using platforms like pay.com.au?

    Life is short and time is valuable. Use your credit card spend for another type of reward and pay cash for your flights. Leave the scramble for reward seats to others.

    Changing Classic rewards booking to more than a year from original departure

    I've been caught out by that rule before. If you have taken the first flight in your booking then you can no longer refund the rest of the flights in that booking. The best you can do is ask for the airport taxes back although not sure if you have to pay a fee to do that. In hindsight if you...

    Fraud on Velocity Frequent Flyer accounts

    I'm not sure what the point of the 125,000 point limit per transfer is. My account was cleaned out within 2 minutes using 4 back to back transfers.

    Adding domestic leg to Qantas Rewards flight

    I didn't know Hobart could override married segments. Anyway not relevant for OP since its not QF-QF.

    Check Accor Plus free night availability

    Nov 30 was available when I looked but someone must have taken it. Dec 2 is the next available date and then after that not until Jan 22.

    It's not. It's available on November 30.

    Check Accor Plus free night availability

    I think the same considerations as reward flights apply when valuing a 'free' hotel stay. If the Accor hotel is asking $700 for that night are you really getting $700 value if a similar quality hotel next door is only asking $350.

    5,000 bonus points each on up to 3 international Qantas Hotels bookings (book by 5/8/24)

    I booked a 3 night stay as 3 single night bookings. Hopefully it won't be an issue.

    5,000 bonus points each on up to 3 international Qantas Hotels bookings (book by 5/8/24)

    It might be because you put 4 digits in the CVC field.

    Review: Ibis Styles and Novotel Melbourne Airport

    Is it worth paying more for Novotel or Ibis? Based on the pictures the differences appear to be cosmetic.

    Life Time Gold - The [Realistic] Holy Grail

    For those of you who went out of your way to get to LTG and are no longer WP, do you find that the pursuit has been worth it? If you could go back in time, would you still use up the same resources to get to LTG? I am about 3.5k SCs away and have lost the motivation to continue. After many years...

    Triple points

    Probably best to assume they won't stack.

    Jetstar no longer selling Max bundle in Economy

    Did you get zero SC or did you get SC at the economy rate? If it's the former forget the call centre and just lodge a missing points claim. If it's the latter then that's a new problem. Please let us know how you eventually resolve it.

    Fraud on Velocity Frequent Flyer accounts

    Do you happen to remember what that FB group was? Sadly the exact scenario you described has happened to me and I'm keen to know the likely outcome of their investigations.

    Global CrowdStrike IT outage impacting airports and more

    They probably will if asked on the phone or online chat but since OP will only get a $29 cash refund or a $49 voucher if it was me I'd prefer a replacement flight. Perhaps a BNE-SYD-AVV/MEL since the direct flights are sold out.
